(ver. 1)
Jerry Garcia
[Intro]

A Ab G E D A D A

[Verse 1]

       E                   
In the timbers to Fennario, 
    G                   D
the wolves are running 'round,
    D                              
The winter was so hard and cold, 
      D              Eb  E
froze ten feet neath the ground.

[Chorus]

E            D  
Don't murder me,    
E          A          Ab G   F#m
  I beg of you, don't murder me. 
E  D                 A   D  A    
Please, don't murder me.

[Verse 2]

A D  Db E                      
  As I  sat down to my supper, 
G                       D
twas a bottle of red whisky,
D
I said my prayers and went to bed, 
           A         Ab  G  F#m
that's the last they saw of me.

[Chorus]

F#m          E   D       
Don't murder me,    
         A          Ab G   F#m
I beg of you, don't murder me. 
E  D                 A   D  A    
Please, don't murder me.

[Verse 3]

A Ab G    F#m          E
     When I awoke, the Dire Wolf, 
    A       G         D
six hundred pounds of sin,
D
Was grinning at my window, 
      D             Eb E          
all I said was come on in.

[Chorus]

E            D       
Don't murder me,    
E        A          C#7    F#m
I beg of you, don't murder me. 
E  D                 A   D  A    
Please, don't murder me.

[Verse 4]

A Ab G    F#m             E
     The  wolf came in, I got my cards, 
   A        G     D
we sat down for a game.
  D
I cut my deck to the queen of spades, 
        D              Eb  E  
but the cards were all the same.

[Chorus]

E            D       
Don't murder me,    
E        A          C#7    F#m
I beg of you, don't murder me. 
E      D             A   D  A    
Please, don't murder me.

[Verse 5]

       E
In the backwash of Fennario, 
    G                D
the black and bloody mire,
    D
The Dire Wolf collects his dues, 
          D               Eb   E          
while the boys sing round the fire.

[Chorus]

E            D  
Don't murder me,    
E          A          Ab G   F#m
  I beg of you, don't murder me. 
E   D                A   D  A    
Please, don't murder me.

[Outro]

A     D   Eb  E 
Don't murder  me,    
D         A          C#7    F#m
 I beg of you, don't murder me. 
E  D                 A   D  A    
Please, don't murder me.
E  D                 A   D  A    
Please, don't murder me.
